Review (by Malcolm Storey) | Records of the Cheese-Skipper up to 1986, since when none has been detected on checks on imported food materials. How much this is due to improved hygiene and increased use of refridgeration in Britain, in the countries of origin, or during shipping and how much is due to the reduction in inspection of imports is uncertain. |
